26/F/Richmond, Virginia I write because sometimes I can't make the words come out of my mouth. I write because I always learn my lesson, but I forget often. I write because I need to be reminded that I am not alone. Follow me: adrianesquex
Why are the good things so hard to remember? Why do my memories fall away and turn into December? Why was I born in the frozen month? On a day of celebration all around the world. Why do the stars say I'm the chosen one? When my fears tell me I am nothing more than a little girl.

He came inside of me a year ago tomorrow He didn’t want to stay and now I’m filled with so much sorrow Why can’t you see me? How does it feel to **** a ghost? Do you know how it feels to feel invisible? You dumped your emotions on me and then you dumped your load You unpacked your baggage and left it on the floor I tripped and fell over it and then I wanted more I’ll admit, My judgment is poor...

In search of a soul bathed in purity Suffering from insecurity Wondering how it will end Wishing that it never began Looking to the sky You wish the answer would fall like rain Washing away all of the hurt Drowning out the endless pain If this is life Then life is not something I want to live Feeling empty Feeling hopeless I have no more to give Loving until it hurts you realize hurt is all you have Trying to move on But life has left your heart in half What do you do when things don’t go your way? What do you do when all you can do is pray?

You used to only make $225 in a week Now you can’t make $225 last a week What is happening here? You swore that if you made more you would be responsible and stable And yet here you are Barely able to stop reaching for your credit card Barely able to stop spending your money and your time Fixated on things you don’t need You promised that if you made more money you would be responsible and stable But here you are Barely able to maintain And filled with greed... (Consistent financial irresponsibility is a form of self-harm and addiction)

I am under construction Out of order Uninhabitable You can't make a house into a home before the foundation is built I could show you the blueprint, but it wouldn't grasp the attention of a man who's not well versed in architecture It wouldn't make sense to a man who doesn't understand the importance of balance and structure A man with no vision couldn't see what I see He couldn't fathom what the end result will be I am undone and unfinished I am building but I am lacking I am trying my best to stay focused without surrendering the strife I work all day, everyday with minimal progress and even less reward and quite frankly I'm growing tired of my life I've spent years gathering my supplies and laying bricks but no amount of progress has made me presentable No amount of hard work has made my incompleteness comprehensible I've laid brick after brick but still I haven't turned into anything remotely livable I work tirelessly and though the bricks keep piling up and the structure becomes more and more fully formed each day, still I am useless I am fed up and I want to give up but instead I get up and lay even more bricks instead of making excuses.
